Jennifer â who is partnered by professional skater Dan Whiston on Dancing On Ice â has also found it tough to ‘juggle’ all of her recent work since she started attending skating practice sessions for the ITV1 show.

She added: ‘It has been a huge juggling act for me. For the first eight weeks of training, I was on tour with Calendar Girls.’

The former Brookside beauty revealed at some points she used to only have time to go home and kiss her son before she had to go and star in Calendar Girls.

She explained: ‘Because I was moving around, I had a different coach at a different ice rink each week. I was also doing eight stage shows a week and still trying to be a mum.

‘Some days, Iâd travel four hours to an ice rink, then go home, kiss Bobby and then go to Calendar Girls.’
